Jacqueline Bigar

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Aug. 5, 2012: This year you frequently look at the big picture, and you’ll make better decisions. Curb a tendency to overdo things or to overindulge yourself. If single, you will want to meet Mr. or Ms. Right Now. Be open. If attached, sometimes you are too caught up in your own feelings, and you lose your self-discipline. Learn to let go, and you will have a great time together. Aries is very impulsive. A baby born today has a sun in Leo and a moon in Pisces if born before 1:59 p.m. Afterward, the moon will be in Aries.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • • Handle a personal matter in the morning. This issue could involve a parent or elder. By midday, your energy will soar.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • You know what you want and clearly have a chosen direction. Accomplish key matters in the morning. Meet with family members or friends for a late brunch or movie.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • Your presence could be far more pivotal than you realize. How you see a situation could change after you hear more feedback from other interested parties.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • Touch base with someone at a distance. Exchanging news will make you feel as if you are in the same town. Make plans to get together in the near future.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • • Your sweetie makes it clear that he or she wants more of your time. You could enjoy a very leisurely day together if you do not answer the phone.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • • You might be exchanging so many hellos wherever you are that you’ll want a nap afterward. Spending some quiet time with a loved one will re-energize you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • You could be surprised by how much a lazy morning could mean. Sometimes not being accountable is important for you and for others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • Enjoy a childlike person in your life; he or she absolutely adores you. When you start interacting with this person, you’ll feel like a kid, too.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • Getting going might be a slow process, if for no other reason than it’s just habit. Break past barriers and do what you want in the daylight hours.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • Making morning calls and visiting with a key person could keep you busy into the middle part of the day. Invite family over for an early dinner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • Be aware of how much you give to people, and not necessarily in the form of money. Plan a late brunch with a friend whom you never have enough time to visit.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • Use the daylight hours to the max, when others appear to be more responsive to your energy. Understanding evolves during an important talk with a loved one.
